Hey guys, I’m gutted today to have lost 2 redlines, I’ve had for over 3 years and a smaller fish I inherited a couple of years ago (but have no idea what it was). Water parameters all fine. Temp and filter all ok. The only thing that’s changed in the last few days is food. I feed a variety of...

I don’t mean for good. It’s just the only other tank I have that I could set up in a hurry.

Hi guys, I posted recently about my pair having laid/had fry when I was away for a few days. On my return there was only 5 left and only for a few hrs 😞. It was the pairs first lot. They have since laid again and this morning I have wrigglers. I could do with some advice, as I would love to...

Thank you, me too. Trust it to be when I’m away a few days 🙈

Update! I have babies 🙈. And I’m on holiday. My neighbour took this pic for me. I have a video, but couldn’t get it to upload

I write down, but for the life of me can’t find the paper. Poss Ellioti cichlids?

I live in a hard water area

What makes you think stressed? I’ve had them about 4 weeks and they have been pretty chilled most of the time. The last few days, one has taken to moving all the sand from a corner of the tank, and just likes to stay close to the floor.

Hello, I’m hoping you lovely lot can help In identifying this pair. Thank you in advance.

Thank you

Just that I thought it was a flower, but it looks like it’s growing roots.

Wow that’s some knowledge there. Thank you so much. Yes, I use root tabs. I have another question if ok. I’ll post a pic

My tank is fully planted, although I’m ashamed to say I have no idea what I put in there. Just went with what I liked the luck of. Is this a sort of sword? And is it trying to flower? Thanks

Thank you. I’m just setting up my old aqua one tank to use. Then this afternoon, I will do a big water change on the main tank and clean the filter.

I have 2 frogs in the tank, I know a lot don’t agree with this. But, my little boy picked them years ago, when we had a little tank and before I knew anything at all :(. Not that I feel like I know tons now, but more than back then. One of the frogs has been bloated this last week, is that...

I’ll try, but he’s pretty fast. He’s one of my oldest fish. Had him 4 years :(. I live in a soft water area.

It’s 200l. Usually 25% one week and 50% the next, with the filter etc being cleaned in the tank water every other time. It has sand substrate, a lot of plants and wood/rocks.

Thank you. I will do all that today. Last water change was 50% 1 week ago and 25% a week before that with the filter etc cleaned. I added some melafix today, as I always have that in the cupboard. it’s a pretty heavily planted tank, with wood and rocks (see profile Pic), should I take the wood...

Just on one and the scales are sticking out. I’ve lost 2 neons in the last week too. 1st looked like popeye, second I debated dropsy. Nitrate 20 nitrite 0 PH 6.5 KH 0 GH 0 200 litre planted tank No live food, new plants, new fish in 6 weeks

A platy has a dark spot on one side with sticking out scales. Thoughts please. I have lost 2 neons in the last week. Feeling stressed .

I did used to feed live worms, until about 5 weeks ago and the now have frozen. He did seem to be breathing harder and was swimming at the surface more. I moved my filter higher, so it was breaking the surface more. But that didn’t make any difference to him.

Thank you, for the replies guys. I did try to take a video and upload it, but couldn’t work out how to do it ‍♀️. He sadly passed away yesterday whilst I was at work :(. I do have caves in the tank and it’s 200 litre, as someone asked me that I think.

His mate died about 4 mths ago in a similar way

No new tank mates in about 3 mths. Fully planted tank. I hate watching him struggle :(. Feeling sad

It’s 0

The character of my tank is not himself at all :(. He’s not eaten for 3 days now and he’s normally snapping at the top and very greedy. He looked quiet blue around the mouth yesterday, but that does look a bit better today. He’s swimming/sitting a lot more nose high, and occasionally is listing...

Yes, they are spotty
